Beyond Good & Evil Walkthrough & Strategy Guide

Press your subscreen key bind to access Jade's maps, mail files, game
options, and inventory. If you don't know which one, now would be a good
time to read your game manual.

Dai-jo (lightsaber-toothpick) - This is Jade-Shauni-Photowoman's
primary weapon. She gets this fairly early on during the introductory fighting
scenes. Holding attack until the green glow turns red will allow her to
launch a super attack that hits enemies all around her.

Synthetic-Atomic-Compressor (SAC) - Jade-Shauni-Photowoman's
backpack is a transporter buffer stolen directly from Starfleet's Elite
Force. It uses atomic fields to hold an inifinite number of weird items
and toy-like objects if you know what I mean and I think you do. Players
can transfer items from Jade-Shauni-Photowoman to a party member or vice
versa. In most cases, all items can be left alone. Greed is essential in
this game.

VP-H263 Camera - A space age auto-stabilised camera with scanning
abilities. This is Jade-Shauni-Photowoman's primary source of making a
living, apart from dancing and other activities deemed obscene by the Ohio
State Supreme Court. Many objects that Jade-Shauni-Photowoman can interact
with will have a "scan result" when the camera targets it. While some objects
will have no apparent value (constellations for example), some objects
(namely switches and entities) can be interacted with using the context
action button. In addition to taking simple photos, the camera can also
snap a map and extrapolate a 3D version of that map.

Easy Unit Card - This is the universal debit card the United
States and the rest of the free world is trying to accomplish. Basically
an enhanced credit/debit card, all of Jade-Shauni-Photowoman's personal
income is accounted on this piece of indestructable alloy and allows her
to buy stuff from various vendors across the galaxy. Since the action is
restricted to Hillys though, you'll have to settle for just this damn planet.
It's still pretty neat, and you don't need to worry about "picking up cash"
unless you're into dungeon exploring and plain old highway robbery (GTA
in the 24th and a half century).

WARNING - Money (hereby denoted as 'credits'
or 'cees') are always in short supply if you keep buying and using health
restore items. Never buy something as temporary as Starkos or PODs unless
you plugged in a Gameshark or Pro Action Replay and cheating.
Buy
only permanent items like detectors, pearls, and health increase
items or else you will know why evil always wins, because good is dumb.

mDisk - Short for media disk, these futuristic data discs hold
missions Jade-Shauni-Photowoman can accomplish for credits and other information.
The special green mdisk is for saving the game. mDisks only function when
placed in a suitable disc reader. Disc reader locations are highlighted
on a map. mDisks are not all needed for the completion of the game, and
most are come across during the main adventure. Some mDisks are the result
of the optional side-quests.

Gyrodisc Launcher - A ranged weapon earned in the middle of the
second major mission (the Factory). In first person camera mode, using
the Item Use key bind will fire discs that hit anything in Jade-Shauni-Photowoman's
line of sight. They do not have homing ability and they do piss-ant damage,
but these discs can activate switches and damage certain enemies. You'll
wonder how to finish the game without it once you get it.

PA-1 - Physiological Accelerators are the heart containers of
Beyond
Good & Eeeeeeeeeeeevil and are always worth buying. It will naturally
refill all the life of Jade-Shauni-Photowoman immediately. PAs can be traded
(empty) to a travelling companion, but this is not recommended action.
It is far cheaper to suck the damage intended for Jade-Shauni-Photowoman's
partner (or let the partner die, they restart with full life). Most of
the game is purely Jade-Shauni-Photowoman action, so sharing leads to bad
events, like dying for no reason other than that you were stupid and not
looking out for your own best interests. And at 1500 cees, this is not
a cheap item to splurge on dumb ass computer "allies".

K-Bup - Pink synthetic food on Hillys that resembles the glop
served on Kirk's Enterprise. It restores all of the eater's life
for 300 cees. Once Jade-Shauni-Photowoman's life meter crawls over four
hearts, start stocking this item in lieu of the Starkos.

Starkos - Yellow synthetic food on Hillys. It looks like cake,
smells like cake, and even tastes like cake - but boy, it ain't cake. It
restores on heart on the life meter for 150 cees. Never buy this item unless
you desperate or stupid (or in most cases, both). The one time you may
want to consider buying it is for an animal shoot, but if you read the
guide for animal locations, you should have no problem not buying
any Starkos, for the rest of your short miserable life.

Meca-Impulser - Works like the PA-1 for the hovercraft and spaceship.
Cost is the same (1500 cees) and they cannot be assigned to anyone who
is a dumbass. Since Jade-Shauni-Photowoman is the only person to operate
her vehicles, these items are never transferred.

POD - Pocket Optimiser Drone. Works like a Starkos but for vehicles.
Cost is the same (150 cees) and this may be one item that you may have
to buy until the set of PODs are absolutely necessary for huge boss fights
(using the hovercraft or spaceship).

Set of PODs - Works like the K-Bup for the vehicles, and costs
the same (300 cees). Not very necessary, and you should only need a few,
unless you absolutely suck with the hovercraft. The spaceship may need
some, but we'll warn you about that before it's too late. Hehehehehehe.

Boost - Increases the hovercraft's speed dramatically for a small
while. Boost can be picked up for 150 cees at the garage, but once you
have the spaceship, you can earn Boost items from any box you destroy in
the spaceship (the boxes yield money in the hovercraft).

Super Attack Enhancer - This item is available at Ming Tzu's
for 2000 cees. It lets Jade-Shauni-Photowoman shoot energy crap from her
crotch once her super attack (hold attack) is airborne. While airborne
(doing her mid-air ballerina pirouette), press attack repeatedly to Space
Channel Five baddies to death without the Michael Jackson stigma. It
is not terribly useful but you can buy it anyway and see if it really helps
you (it doesn't).

Pearl Detector - A passive detector that locates pearls like
the disc reader detector Jade-Shauni-Photowoman starts off with. Athough
this guide mentions where all the pearls are found, this item may help
you out in locating them (entrances to extra areas are marked with the
pearls - in Hillys or the Ped-district for example).

Animal Detector - A very valuable item for detecting different
species of animals not yet scanned by the camera for the Science Institute
project. It detects where the most likely appearance of an animal is (although
you can simply snap every animal you come across to check). There are more
than 50 different species of animals for Jade-Shauni-Photowoman to capture
on Hillys; not all are benign and many are very well hidden.

Crystal - Purple nasty looking crystals that are worth 10 cees
on the commodities market. Each crystal gathered will automatically credit
Jade-Shauni-Photowoman's account by 10 cees, which isn't all that bad if
you don't splurge the wealth on useless crap like food.

Pearl - Exorbitant items of the rich, possibly the Hillyans'
source of planetary wealth. Each pearl is worth a lot of cees when they
are available, and they are used exclusively at the garage where illegal
ship parts can be bought. Like Han Solo, Jade-Shauni-Photowoman is not
unfamiliar with the seedy under belly of galactic civilisation. Pearls
are usually earned, and the detector at Ming Tzu's can go a long way helping
you find them. The ones that can be bought from vendors and other parties
are at least 3000 cees, if not more.

Animals - All types of unique Hillyan fauna are to be catalogued
for the Science Insititute. With only about fifty or so of these guys (you
really only need them for the pearls) you may encounter them in different
areas of the planet, although some are so unique, they only appear once
in the game. But you photgraph animals for the money, not the pearls.
